Ronald Searle's character designs for Dick Deadeye
Bill Melendez's 1975 animated Gilbert and Sullivan pastiche Dick Deadeye or Duty Done had a couple of tie-in books accompanying its release. The one above (which, oddly, doesn't refer to the film in its title) is a slim volume that consists entirely of Gilbert and Sullivan lyrics alongside art drawn for the film by Ronald Searle, who worked on it as character designer.
